6. Thermal response test : method development and evaluation
Sammanfattning : Since the first introduction of thermal response tests with mobile measurement devices in Sweden and USA in 1995, the method has developed and spread in North America and Europe. Thermal response tests have so far been used primarily for in situ determination of design data for BHE (borehole heat exchanger) systems, but also for evaluation of grout material, heat exchanger types and groundwater effects.

7. Thermal Plasmonic Metasurfaces
Sammanfattning : Plasmonic materials can form viable optical absorbers that offer new possibilities for device designs as they potentially have large optical cross-sections with readily tuned spectral positions and widths. Applications for such materials include heat generation via optical absorption. LÄS MER
8. Thermal adaptation along a latitudinal gradient in damselflies
Sammanfattning : Understanding how temperature affects biological systems is a central question in ecology and evolutionary biology. Anthropogenic climate change adds urgency to this topic, as the demise or success of species under climate change is expected to depend on how temperature affects important aspects of organismal performance, such as growth, development, survival and reproduction.

9. Alkali Release and Effects on Biomass Thermal Conversion Processes
Sammanfattning : High alkali content is an important feature of biomass, and it has a series of implications for thermal conversion processes. This thesis focuses on the release of alkali during various biomass thermal conversion processes, including biomass pyrolysis, char gasification, co-conversion of different types of biomass, and thermal conversion of biomass mixed with fresh and used bed materials.

10. Thermal conductivity of wide and ultra-wide bandgap semiconductors
Sammanfattning : This PhD thesis presents experimental and theoretical studies of the thermal conductivity of wide and ultra-wide bandgap semiconductors including GaN, AlN, β-Ga2O3 binary compounds, and AlxGa1−xN, ScxAl1−xN, YxAl1−xN ternary alloys. Thermal conductivity measurements are conducted using the transient thermoreflectance (TTR) technique and the results are interpreted using analytical models based on the solution of the Boltzmann transport equation (BTE) within the relaxation time approximation (RTA).
